“This small buggy released in 1993 continued the expanding line of introductory level Technic vehicles. None of the features here are new, but if considered without comparison to its predecessors, this is a good functional model. As you can see in the image, the increasing... More use of stickers continued here, but they tend to degrade considerably over time which tarnishes the look of the model”

About Technic

TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
Summary
Technic Dune Buggy set 8818 was released in January 1993, retailing for $12, but has since been retired. New, unopened Dune Buggy sets are valued at $30, while used sets can be found for $9 in good condition.
